conspiracy

I am suddenly convinced that there is conspiracy against the previous students of sixeff. Problems with work suddenly seem to plague us at the same time (as indicated by facebook postings), ill luck, bad situations and even worse, bad health.

They all seemed to have called on us at the same bloody time.

It's not been the best August for me. Workload has tripled since I shifted back to the office, the days have started earlier and ended MUCH later. And the words - well, they've gotten harsher, sharper. The deadlines are neverending, and never satisfied.

The air has gotten a lot heavier. The heart has quickened it's pace. And the freedom has all but vanished.

But despite, all this, I am convinced that I am well off.

I cannot say why, but I know through comparison.

I know there are a few of you who have changed jobs, I know some who have stayed. I know some who are suffering, and I know some who have paid.

The shoes have gotten heavier - especially this Monday. Today, they felt like lead bricks. But as I think back to last thursday, I am even more determined to carry them. I have to. I need to.

I am going to make it through this shit.
